Capital of the
mountainous state of Himachal, or the "abode of snow", Shimla
was the summer capital of the Raj and retains the air of a
bygone era. Pine trees abound in the valley and exude a
fragrance that lingers. At 7000' the summer days are pleasant
and evenings nippy. The Kangra Valley is home to some delightful
heritage properties and we get the chance to stay in some of
them, experiencing a lifestyle long forgotten. |
